Suddenly this evening, my calender app crashes on startup. I've not changed any software. The calender is synced through iCloud with my iPhone which is operating fine. The iOS is 5.1.1 (Bear in mind it's a 1st Gen iPad and wont go to iOS6).
Any ideas?
Try resetting the iPad. Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't fix the issue, try restoring through iTunes on your computer.
Do you have any all day events on April 1st? there's a glitch with the calendar app where any all day event on April 1 makes it crash. this includes subscribed calendars, like holiday ones. (For many the glitch is Easter Monday)
Either remove those events or edit them to last a few hours instead of all day.
Hi Skydiver, that answer sorted it! How astonishing! Thanks for helping me.
Phil
Glad it worked for you.
